Followers may remember this photo of cute lion cubs I posted in April.
I took that picture with my cell phone. Today, rummaging through photos on my computer, I found these photos that I took with my small point-and-shoot camera during the same encounter. I think they are worth sharing, too.
South Africa – June 2017.
George Floyd was interred today. May he rest in peace. And may we find the courage, wisdom and humanity to overcome the scourge of conscious and subconscious racism.
Stunning shots, amazing place! I was in Kruger many years ago, and spent $200 to get 26 rolls of film developed. After that I bought my first digital camera, still in the early days of the technology.

It took me a while to switch to digital too. I really like it now. No developing time or cost and editing is a breeze. The photos in Kruger were all on my cell phone. Kruger is an amazing experience!

Not very artful but I had to mention him. I watched the services all afternoon.

Amazing big cats ! Before reading your post, I thought you use a super telephoto camera. But when you said: “I took that picture with my cell phone”…..seriously that is too close and dangerous.

I was in a safari vehicle so there was protection. A lion could get in, however, if it really wanted to. Thanks for the concern.

Indeed. Being close to so much potentially lethal fauna was very exciting.
